Tbh I'm not sure it is a screamer, its revs have the rough properties id associate with something like the rsv4. Hell we're still early too, could have been just a suspension testbed. Only october will tell.

Hell I'd rather see em change there styles up more often than roll with the same shit year in and year out like Suzuki and Honda.
